About Us...

With 18 years of experience of travel in the region and a passion for textiles and crafts, Narelle Grudgfield of MTA Travel carefully constructs each trip piece by piece by returning to a site many times over a number of years - working with the very best of local travel companies - meeting and talking to people and discovering hidden treasures, sampling hotels, guesthouses and restaurants to ensure that each textile tour is a unique experience.

Narelle believes that travel should be about an exchange of knowledge, a sharing of wealth, and a genuine appreciation of culture, people and a country and natural beauty. We incorporate a balance of culture and humanitarian projects in all our journeys, enriching travellers with a true insight into unique the communities of Asia. All tours give you the opportunity to make a difference to the lives of the people you meet on your travels. We know from experience that not everyone likes to travel in the same way, so we offer travelers a range of different options.Narelle works closely with her on the ground contacts and leading local travel experts to ensure that you are well looked after throughout your journey.

Narelle has spent many years travelling and working with grass roots community projects across the region. Narelle's passion for travel and making a difference allows her to provide travellers with a unique travel experience. Her philosophy for travel and touring is that we can all make a positive difference to the places we travel to, and the people that we meet along the way.
